Finding new love

Chapter 5 -

It's noon and Taco Del Mar is full. Fortunately, our table is always reserved at this time. In any case, Sarah’s dad is the owner, and this is our favorite place to date. Emily is always late, so this time she runs in breathlessly throws her things on the chair, and fixes her skirt. "Girls, I'm sorry I'm late." "What happened now?" The car wouldn't start? Did someone suck your gas? The tire is flat? The dog ate the cell phone? ” I tease her, mentioning standard excuses. She bit her lip and grimaced. "Mason." I look at Kat and Sara, but I don't understand. I see, it's not for them either. "Who is Mason?" Kat is the first to deal with the question. "The one from the masquerade ball. We met. Three times already. ” "Wow! It's, I'd say, a record for you, ”Sarah said, refraining from stabbing her. "Hell, I like baldness, but listen to how we sound. Emily and Mason. Like two idiots.

"Horror, a shave at the club and I've already met his mom," he snapped, pulling his hand to his mouth. He still tells us his adventures, and I bite because I hide my story from them. Otherwise, we have no shame in front of each other, we are always there for support and help. Yet now I am ashamed of myself and the thoughts I have. "Girls, I heard that character," I drum aloud and draw all eyes to myself. Sarah grins from ear to ear as I nibble my fingernail. "That guy, that male god staring at you?" Sarah, of course, told the story to the girls in the taxi. "Where did he get your number?" "He found it," I lie instantly and regret. I don’t understand the urge to hide that I called him like some desperation. "Anyway, he invited me to his place," I say carefully and follow their reactions. "Home? At home? ” Kat's eyes widened. "That. At home. ”
